Arsenal find themselves in a strong position in the Premier League table, but the injury to star winger Bukayo Saka has thrown a wrench into their plans. The England international is set to miss “many weeks” after being forced off during the first half of Arsenal’s 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace on Saturday.
With a congested January fixture schedule looming, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta faces a critical decision: rely on existing squad depth or venture into the transfer market to secure reinforcements.
After an active summer that saw the arrivals of Riccardo Calafiori and Mikel Merino, Arteta may now need to consider player departures and potential new signings to address Saka’s absence. Speaking after confirming the winger’s injury, Arteta hinted at ongoing strategic planning but remained tight-lipped about possible additions.
